    I'm on my gfs youtube right now, just wanted to let you know it also applies to 08 and 09 Pontiac torrent model. I had this problem and fixed I for 20 bucks and had to do it again because of a faulty new part. Also I just replaced the thermostat but my problem is the car is getting hot the engine is ticking and the needle fluctuates from hot to the middle position. I'm afraid I've got an expensive problem or maybe another bad thermostat.

      More than likely it sounds like a wire could’ve gotten robbed and caused that problem sorry I haven’t made video of that scenario yet but I know it’s a definite possibility from the years that this video has been up and the different problems that people are talking about usually they say that it ultimately ended up being a rubbed wire it was broken down the line in the engine compartment sorry I wish I could be more specific than that

      I buy and sell these for a living and do head gaskets on every single one if the car is saying a code for the sensor and putting a new sensor did not fix it you most likely need intake gaskets and while you’re there you might as well do head gaskets air gets trapped in the system from air getting sucked in at the intake and if it comes in at the intake it will not mix the oil with the coolant like when a head gasket goes

      Do you know how to use a test light?
      There are several things that it could be but what you need to do is called a draw down test. click the link below and I will describe how you do this.

      I’m really sorry I do not know there are about 5 to 7 hoses attached to that vehicle that could be any one of them.
      And I can’t remember for certain but I believe there’s some smaller hoses that can break that carry coolant as well it’s extremely critical that you get a coolant leak fixed in one of these particular engines because they will overheat very quickly.
      I guess most engines will overheat very quickly and it’s never good to overheat an engine. Sorry I wish I could help you pinpoint that problem

    I replaced my temp sensor a couple months ago and also had to replace the harness as the clip broke when removing off temp sensor.(*@*&$*) However, now I'm getting the P0119 code again. When I replaced the wires it was very hard to tell which was the ground/hot when I connected temp sensor back to the motor because the old wires were burnt. I cut wire back to non-burn area, but still hard to tell which wire was neutral/hot. I did read that if i put wires on backwards that the gauge would also read backwards, but what I read, having the wires backwards didn't seem to be an issue with regards to shorting the sensor out. The temp gauge reading looks normal around the 210 when starting and rises over time. Earlier, I did swap the relay out with a different relay in fuse box, but still have same issues. Any thoughts on this or what to try/test next? I dread thinking about having to reattach to temp sensor harness to the motor as the wires are very short before leading back into a larger harness just on top of motor.

      Disconnect the battery for 5 minutes. Reconnect and problem is gone. Chevy should be sued for the thousands spent for this error message. This catch-all message isn't appropriate. It triggers when the engine does not heat up fast enough. The last thing you want is to turn on your radiator fans??? This often happens in colder areas.
